Kasturī on Colors Marathi - Page 6

Samar thoroughly proved himself a hypocrite, lecturing Sally:

1. She shouldn't call him phālatū - but he can judge her an insignificant journalist at a glance.

2. His time is valuable "too" - but he chose to spend it wasting her time.

3. He values his commitments and his word - but he broke his commitment to the interview without even informing her.

4. Her senior journalist is supposed to be here, but he didn't come - so Sally who took an assignment gets to hear "you broke the commitment."

5. Samar wants to share his ideas and plans for his people - yet his ego matters more than his people.

It was rude of Samar to call her Sayali when the name she uses is Sally.

Sally put aside her indignation to do her job, which was to get the story. She wasn't going to get the apology she deserved from Samar, but she gave him an apology just so that the situation wouldn't deteriorate further. Professionals have to deal with all kinds of people who refuse to talk to a woman ... to a trainee ... to a non-speaker of whichever language.

I wonder if Samar loses his privileged attitude as the story progresses.

Samar is definitely selfish and egoistic.

I feel the way he treated Sally may backfire later; but what caught my attention was the way Samar says Kasturi is his "investment" with no regrets. He dances with her in the rain, and returns her diary which he mistook as though it is the most important thing on earth, but in the latest precap he was shown passing the flowers gifted by kasturi to that new entry sakshi (who is going to be his fiancé soon). How insensitive is that? I can give benefit of doubt that he may not know Kasturi has developed a crush on him but isnt that insensitive to pass your gift to another person. And poor Kasturi is feeling bad as he does it with zero emotion.

Characters keep using the phrase çāṅgalyā gharātalā/gharātalī - चांगल्या घरातला/घरातली - Nilesh referring to the woman seeming to be harassed and Rajesh vouching for Nilesh at the police station. To me, it sounds like the dialogue writer expects the audience to judge people's character by their socioeconomic status.

Instead of saying that the woman was struggling, not flirting, or that Nilesh was assaulted, not brawling, the dialogue tells us that "from a nice family" implies infallibility.

Samar's new gf getting on my nerves already 😆

It's refreshing to see a rival to the female lead behaving like a genuinely pleasant, graciously confident person.

Sakshi returned Jani's greeting pleasantly. She put Madhavi at ease with her smiling thanks and charmed Divakar by replying to "Bābā kasā āhe tuzhā?" with a colloquialism: "Mind-blowing!" Sakshi may be used to joking with elders as equals, but she touched their feet anyway. She gave Samar a straightforward compliment: "Looking handsome," without acting giddy or coy.

On any typical daily drama, the female lead's rival would act supercilious with her, but Sakshi only laughed at Samar's quip, "Queen of Flowers," not at Kasturi. When Sakshi the wealthy businesswoman heard that Kasturi sells flowers outside the temple, she didn't think less of her. She held out her hand, not condescendingly but as a friendly gesture. While Samar insensitively used English to talk about Kasturi, Sakshi thoughtfully switched to Marathi.

"Shut up!" is not professional language in Canada where I live, but it's standard for male bosses on Indian TV, so why shouldn't Sakshi be equally assertive when she has said "Listen!" and a subordinate doesn't fall silent?

The character who annoys me is Divakar. He could have poured the tea himself instead of prompting Urmila to do it. Urmila's thought was correct; she's not a servant, but the writers obviously want us to think she doesn't know a woman's place.

actually you are right. People like divakar are the ones who "create" personality like "urmila"

Samar's avuncular relationship with Abha is adorable, but he should let her know firmly that impersonating anyone through texting is seriously wrong.

This little girl is a good actress - very natural dialogue delivery and expressions!

I enjoyed the debate between Sakshi and Kasturi about whether flowers belong on plants on in human hands. It's unusual for the heroine's rival on any daily drama to be as thoughtful as Sakshi, or even to get a word in when the heroine starts to preach. Sakshi considered what Kasturi had to say without patronizing her, but respectfully disagreed.

Samar had to cancel the bouquet since Sakshi didn't want it, but I think he was sincerely persuaded by her ideas and impressed by her eloquence and poise. It won't be trivial for Samar to forget Sakshi and accept Kasturi, and that's good. Let him have that depth and decency.

On Jīva Zhālā Yeḍāpisā, Shiva's fidelity to Sayali was a bit exaggerated with him crying over her birthday cake and doing no work all day. Here, we may get to see Ashok Phal Dessai in a more believable first and second romance.

When Kasturi said that flowers don't know whether they'll be at God's feet or around his neck, the double meaning was clear: Sakshi and Kasturi are both attracted to Samar, but who will embrace him and who will only submit to him?

Likewise, when Sakshi said that we decide flowers' fate and wrongly attribute it to God, and if flowers weren't plucked, instead of being put to use, they would get to live their own lives, it was a metaphor for society's expectation that women should accept whatever identity marriage gives them, and not question what their individual lives might have been.

Was this philosophically rich scene in the Kannada original, or do the Marathi adaptation's writers deserve all the credit?

I find that their scenes are so cute. The way she goes around kaaka kaaka and his tone when he calls her abhudi.

I didn’t watch all episodes in the original. I don’t understand kannada much too but I think credit goes to Marathi writers. Good that they are not copy pasting the original version. But there are few things that they have changed in this version.

1. Samar has more shades in kasturi

2. Samar’s dad is less irritating in the original

3. Samar genuinely liked the gf in original, here he is still not clear

4. In original they are already married by episode 30, but here it may go further

5. Samar supposed to have a younger brother. Did they remove the character, I wonder….
